Vehicles occupy every inch of space

Here now i would like to add some of the forwards i got about Hosur Traffic







A large concentration of IT offices and small industries in and around Hosur Road region draws thousands of people every day.

It almost takes 1.5 to 2 hours to reach ma office everyday. Even ma friend in Chennai tells the same but the only difference is he travels to Mahendra City which is 45 kms from his place n I go to Electronics city which is just 13 kms from ma place..... so everyday 4 hours in the bus.. n its become ma second bedroom (the place where i sleep) n there was one day in which there was no traffic n i reached office in 30 odd minutes n crap i lost ma sleep......

there was a mail from one of our companies director last week to give co operate with the changes happening... it seems there is a elevated highway coming which will join silk board and electronics city.. n there is also a 14 way line coming up… wow tats a great news for the IT companies… but what's going to happen to the pedestrians ???????????????? there lots of small scale industries along the Hosur road n 90 % of those employees are using cycles as their mode of travel....

i don’t wanna make any kinda comment on the government as still we don’t know what plans they are having in their heads.

so what do u think would be a temp solution for this traffic problem ????? According to a recent study by the FHWA in the US. Only 40 per cent of congestion on the roads is from insufficient road capacity and bottlenecks..

A recent research paper from the Federal Highway Administration in the United States concluded that 60 per cent of the traffic congestion is non-recurring - i.e. this congestion is caused by something other than insufficient capacity and bottlenecks. This chart tells us the story - more than half the problem is not due to lack capacity, but lack of capacity management, which results from ignoring and neglecting important issues. In Indian conditions, the lack of pedestrian, bicycle and informal public transport (auto rickshaws, taxis and private buses) management contributes to more than 30 per cent of the traffic congestion. Simply improving the management of these can result in savings of time - and money that would otherwise be sunk into even more grand engineering plans.
